I have been running at a quite high pace for short distances (up to 13 km) these last few weeks.
What's the news? I could finish with no pain and no bad feelings about my knee whatsoever.
The physical therapy I am following, associated to shock wave therapy seem to work indeed. As being part of an experiment conducted at the Sport Medical Advice Center of Katholieke Universiteit of Leuven, I just had the last session today. Now it's only about resting a bit and continuing with the eccentric exercises gently prescribed by the physical therapist.
Then building up some mileage again and hopefully go back to the trail.
Tears on my face. Smiling at 48 teeth.
You know what I mean when doctor says "it's time to build up some mileage, but do it sloooowly".
Yes doc. Thanks very much indeed.
I hope that patellar tendonitis is just a bad memory, of which, unfortunately a video will stay on file.
I wish you never get this. Wish me good and long runs.
Stay tuned!
The Gipsy runner is getting back to the road, where he belongs to.
